Seravalli calls out Pettersson for no-showing the 4 Nations

[Sasha Orlov]

The only thing you explaining is the lack of your understating of simplest things. Like what is "show" and what is "real" or what is "reference" and what is "comparison".

You would do better next time if you try to read about these things first before participating in a discussion.

So people would not laugh at your posts. But feel free to embarrass yourself more. I like to laugh.

Not understanding a really simple joke and then resorting to a post like this is not a good look lmfao

Thread’s already a hot mess. Nice!

EP40 should be resting.

He did plenty on the bench last game.

 

[Rob Brown]

What happened to EP? Did he peak already?

Is this calling him out or just stating a fact?

 

[Sky04]

He's still playing with a nagging injury and didn't have the off-season to practice. Pettersson will recover and put up 100 points again, and people will be scratching their heads as to why they couldn't do some basic Google searches to find out if he's injured or not.

Yeah real smart to play with a "nagging injury" hurting his performance this much instead of using this time to heal, he must be real stupid or it's an untrue, maybe you can goggle it.

If you were to "goggle" it, you would know he's playing with tendonitis, and it's something you can play through. One "goggle" away from the truth like I said.

You forgot the quotation marks around "play".

...Patrice Bergeron played through broken ribs and a punctured lung...Shea Weber played through a broken foot...just two examples of "playing through" things that every NHL player does on a regular basis...

I don't disagree with Frank about Pettersson, but Seravalli has been spreading whatever narrative he likes throughout the 4 Nations Tournament even with the anthems. JT Miller hasn't been exactly producing either, yet no mention there.

Seravalli lost all respect from me when he went on last playoffs about how "the blue collar crowd of Edmonton are his people" like Frankie, cmon now

Damn tendonitis since he signed his contract last March and has been producing at 50 point pace since, must be a moron to to play a tournament when he could be resting and helping his team.

Amazing, what a heart and soul guy.

I didn’t know you could get tendinitis from signing a contract, wild

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

Seravalli is annoying as a person. I do not like him.

Pettersson is a pretty long surname. Lots of pages for signatures in one of those things. That wrist took a beating.

[SeanMoneyHands]

He's likely playing hurt from Miller leaving the team.

He's gone straight downhill since signing his monster contract. That's what happened to him.

Not all injuries are the same.

You think that if he sits out the entire year including last off-season it's going to make him play better? Also, management offered him that contract. I refuse to believe that you don't already know this. You can play through certain injuries, sitting out might not always be the best idea.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Concussed long term like Timo Meier. Both damaged goods.

 

[JKG33]

I'm loving the usual suspects being complete non-factors here again in this tournament. EP, Matthews, Marner (completley invisible besides the shift he scored in OT)

 

[Coffey]

"Elias Pettersson..... fragile ego, fragile body, weak mind, weak spirit"

...buy the excuse, then...that's up to you...

What evidence do you have that's he's just faking it? Has there been any evidence that he's just phoning it in? Has his behavior changed?

...didn't say he was "faking"; said NHLers play through much worse all the time...and his play on the ice is evidence of "phoning it in"...

Something happened to him in Vancouver. I don't buy all that stupid "he doesn't have heart" bullshit. The dude is an incredibly talented player, but something is broken in Vancouver and he's just going through the motions now.

The whole team seems to have regressed. There's something definitely wrong in Vancouver.

...what about his "showing" in the 4 Nations??...that doesn't have anything to do with Vancouver...

I know Leaf fans make a lot of excuses for the muskoka 4, but I've never seen the red carpet of excuses rolled out for anyone else quite like it is for EP. Maybe Liane and Karlsson, but this is all time excuse making.

He was already playing terrible before this though. Though I suppose it’s possible his knee was an initial problem and post-concussion syndrome has been an added issue since
